# Prompt Engineering

this is my journey to learn and understand Prompt Engineering

# Question & Answer

**Q1- what is Prompt Engineering ?** 


**A1- Prompt Engineering** is a new to writing, refining and optimizing prompts in a structured way.

- **Responsibilities:**

    - write, refine and optimize prompts

    - perfect the interaction between humans and AI

    - continuous monitor those prompts

    - maintain an up to date prompt library

**Q2- what is AI - (Artificial Intelligence) ?** 


**A2- AI - (Artificial Intelligence)** is the simulation of human intelligence processes by a machine.

**Q3- what is ML - (Machine Learning) ?** 


**A3- ML - (Machine Learning)** is the process AI uses to learn and improve from experience without being explicitly programmed.

**Q4- what is Linguistics ?** 


**A4- Linguistics** is the study of language (it's the key of prompt engineering).

- consist of 10 things:

    1. Phonetics

        - The study of how speech sounds are produced and perceived

    2. Phonology

        - The study of sound patterns and changes

    3. Morphology

        - The study of word structure

    4. Syntax

        - The study of sentence structure

    5. Semantics

        - The study of linguistic meaning

    6. Pragmatics

        - The study of how language is used in context

    7. historical

        - The study of language change

    8. Sociolinguistics

        - The study of the relation between language and society

    9. Computational

        - The study of how computers can process human language

    10. Psycholinguistics

        - The study of how humans acquire and use language

**Q5- what is a Language Model ?** 


**A5- Language Model** is a smart program which train on books, articles and other source of texts to generate human like conversation/text/story.

It work something like this:

- you give a sentence as input

- it will analyze the sentence as per grammar rules, order of words and other things

- and it will generate a continuation of the sentence as per it's training

**Q6- what is a Prompt ?** 


**A6- Prompt** is a string of text that is used as input to a language model. It is used to guide the language model's output.

**Q7- what is a Prompt Library ?** 


**A7- Prompt Library** is a collection of prompts that are used to guide the language model's output.

- it is a collection of prompts that are used to guide the language model's output.

**Q8- what is Zero Shot Prompt ?** 


**A8- Zero Shot Prompt** is asked to solve a task or problem without any specific instruction/preparation.

**Q9- what is Few Shot Prompt ?** 


**A9- Prompt Library** is a collection of prompts that are used to guide the language model's output.

**Q10- what is AL Hallucination ?** 


**A10- AL Hallucination** is a type of hallucination that is caused by the language model.

- it happens when the language model generates a response that is not related to the input prompt.

- it happens because the language model is not trained on the input prompt.

# Steps

1. Clear Instructions

    - make sure you provide clear instruction about what you need and what you don't need

2. Adopt a persona

    - give AI a persona that is relevant to the task/project/person you are working on

3. Specify the format

    - specify the format of the output

4. Avoid leading the Answer

5. Limit the scope

# History

## Eliza

- An early natural language processor (1964 to 1966)

- by Joseph Weizenbaum at MIT

## SHRDLU

- Another early natural language processor (1968 to 1969)

- by Terry Winograd at MIT

## GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer)

- A large language model (2018 to present)

- by OpenAI
